Part I: Brooklyn Film Festival
Two film festivals just wrapped-up in New York City, the Brooklyn Film Festival which screened more than 100 narratives and documentaries — 36 by New York City based directors, and over a dozen shot in Brooklyn — and the DocPoint NYC which featured 47 Finnish documentaries in celebration of the Helsinki festival’s 10th anniversary.

Good cinematic bloodlines for both fests.
First, three films that screened at the Brooklyn Film Festival.
